My board closed all schools today, quite rare. (I'm in a board adjacent to Toronto; Toronto's, for some reason, remained open.)

My big blue snow shovel just died after a decade of service. Seinfeld crossed my mind as I shoveled away:
"Am I crazy, or is that a lot of snow?""That's a lot of snow!"
― clemenza, Monday, 2 February 2015 19:21 (nine years ago) link
Getting near six feet here, with drifts up to eight. We've gotta clear the sidewalk or we face fines from the town. Nowhere to put the snow, though, and I can't fling it higher than six feet. Thought about putting it in the street, but a town workman came by and told me that if I did, I'd face fines. I shoveled an eighteen inch wide pathway in white-out conditions along the ~ 40 feet in front of my house, a cut-out for the car (which kept getting filled in by sadistic plowmen), and a pathway up the front walkway and steps. After an hour I came inside to peel off socks and find blue-black toes. Screw you, Groundhog Day.

Ha, funny that you should post that. I took this pic of the back of some buildings on Beacon street in Boston earlier this week. The entire block was like this.

NYC forecast for 3-5 inches snow Fri night, but as it's weather.com i hope they're fucked in the head

with the ground temps significantly higher than they were just a few weeks ago it shouldn't stick.

get with it, spring doesn't come to the northeast until basically may, if we're talking about actually nice weather here
saying this for myself too so i stop getting disappointed when i can't hang out outside in march. i forget this every year but really i need to realize that cold in the northeast is a 6-month thing

oh yea it's not different, i just don't know why every year i think nice weather comes when daylight savings starts, i need to get my expectations to better match the reality of winter in these regions.
so depressing when i look at my phone and see that so many other parts of the country are already in the 60s and 70s

though the weather story i keep seeing today is that three years ago it was mid-70s in boston this whole week
that's cruel of the weather crew to do stories like that. they should be doing stories on the ice age, people starving in caves and licking each other's poop to survive and stuff like that

i only made it halfway through the boy scout guide but i'm assuming at some point you have to lick poop in order to survive

weather underground's site is weird, though - it says 5-8in for Friday but the rest of the data/charts/descriptions they have don't use the same figure, as far as I can tell
